Hi Greg and welcome to EAB

You are using WinUAE (http://www.winuae.net/) right? If so you should have a look here : http://guide.abime.net/home.htm
I guess there will be more questions, but let's try to start this way

many thanks for quick reply,
ok using a Winuae 1.6.0
when i start it it says i need a
ks rom v2.04

went to amiga forever got the amigaforever 2008 value addition however cant see how to download to use the code i payed for?

would this help me or did i get the wrong thing?

Can't really help you with the Amiga Forever download, but have a look here : http://www.amigaforever.com/kb/16-113
Seems like you need to contact the site where you paid for it.
K240 should run with a 'A500' (Amiga 500) quickstart. This might be important because you only get the kickstart rom for A500 (1.3) with the value edition.
Hope you can get the download sorted

got forever sorted now. just slow in sending file

where can i find the quickstart?

again many thanks

When you first start WinUAE, Left pane, Under Settings, 3rd one down, Green Arrow pointing to the right with Quickstart written next to it select your model from the right pane and select the adf image in the emulated floppy box

ok got it working not sure how but it works, however K240 came on 3 disks i have the files, and when it loads the 1st disk it asks for the second and i can go no further, as i cant go back in the uae to tell it to use the second file. any pointers

TCD · 06 June 2009, 18:08

Press F12 when he asks for the second disk. That will open the WinUAE GUI again

DH · 06 June 2009, 18:09

Press F12 then put the second disk into DF1: Then press OK

or

Press F12 put the second disk into DF0: if it wont accept more than one Floppy drive

TCD · 06 June 2009, 18:12

Well if the second disk is already in DF1 (the second 'slot'), then you just need to press the left mouse button (just checked it here).
Hope we're not confusing you yet

awsome thanks works perfectly

DH · 06 June 2009, 18:15

I think TCD should take the credit, he beat me to it

TCD · 06 June 2009, 18:17

Hehe

You know where to find us, if there are any other questions

DH · 06 June 2009, 18:33
